Hebrews 4:15–Our High Priest Sympathizes

Hebrews 4:15–"For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin."

It is no understatement to say that life is full of misery, disappointment, letdown, suffering, and sorrow. Brokenness seems to cast a shadowy pall over our world that is keen to render us helpless and hopeless as we are confronted by our persistent weaknesses.  But praise be to God who has sent His Son to take on the form of man through the incarnation so as to be able to empathize with our sufferings and with our sorrow!

We should not ever forget this when we are going through whatever bout of sadness or weakness we may be trudging through, knowing that our King Jesus is there with us and He understands!
